Okay, so the actual upgrade didn’t actually take me very long. I’ve been spending most of this time surfing the web and applying a publicly available theme to my blog. The one I have up right now is Ocadia by Becca Wei. It encompasses several of the major design points that I want to hit when I finally have some time to create my own custom theme for this place. In the meantime, Becca’s theme will do beautifully. 😀
I may actually take a few moments to change the colors to shades of purple sometime in the near future. Otherwise, the custom graphics creation and figuring out how to work with the WordPress templates will have to wait. Before that, I need to finish creating the graphics for my mother’s storefront and then I have to make myself dig into trying to create the new layout I have envisioned for my personal site. Once my personal site is redesigned, I can apply those layout concepts across to my blog and my photo gallery.
For now, though, I’m happy where I am, as I’ve made huge strides towards my ultimate destination tonight.
